Your list is great if -

(1) If the person has a deep interest in you.
(2) If your rules meets their expectations of a relationship.

With (1) being more important than (2).

Much of what you have there isn't out of the ordinary. For example not calling everyday. This is pretty common today. If a woman said to you, "I'm really busy during the week at the office, but my weekends are free. It's better to call me then." Would you consider that unreasonable?

I generally don't call, I would text though if she called me back, I'd talk to her.

My main problem is a difficulty allowing myself to get close to someone, don't get me wrong I think I could do it. I just don't want to piss them off in he mean time.

oh, no, that really wouldn't do for me. When I get into a relationship it is sweep me off my feet, dying to be in each other's company if not each other's arms! I was relegated to a structured relationship, but I was being 'kept' by men, and that was part of the deal. . .but not when romantic limerence swept us away and we were hopelessly recklessly in love. . .

oh,I shiver when I remember the hoplessly recklessly in love attachments I have had. The memories warm me as I sleep alone in my bed in the long nights.

I never have a problem with getting people to be interested, because apparently I'm very good looking, but I have trouble keeping a relationship. There is so much going on inside that they don't get.

Always the opposite here. Ah, I can get
people briefly interested, but I seem to
shoo them away before they can say much.

But, once in a romantic situation, it
seems to stay that way. Guess there's
just so little going on in me, that I calm
them. :P

What is so unusual about this?

1981 - Raiders Of The Lost Ark! I used to get freaked out when I opened closets, thinking a skeleton with snakes would fall out onto me. At least for a little while after seeing the movie. The Celtics win the NBA Title with the Hick from French Lick. It was "Business As Usual" for Men At Work and the J. Geils Band had a "Freeze Frame". Not to mention that a "Ghost In The Machine" was found by The Police and it was "October" for U2.
